io_setup.2: Tweak description of /proc/sys/fs/aio-max-nr
...
As far as I can see, /proc/sys/fs/aio-max-nr is a
system-wide limit, not a per-user limit. This seems to be
confirmed by comments in fs/aio.c (Linux 5.6) sources).

proc.5: Fix an outdated note about map_files
...
The restriction to CAP_SYS_ADMIN was removed from map_files in
2015 [1]. There was a fixme that indicted this might happen, but
the main text was never updated when this commit landed. While
we're at it, add a note about the ptrace access check that is
still required.

mbind.2: Remove note about MPOL_MF_STRICT been ignored
...
Current code ignores the MPOL_MF_STRICT when handling hugetlb
mapping, now patch([1]) handles MPOL_MF_STRICT in same semantic as
other mapping. So, we can remove the note about 'MPOL_MF_STRICT
is ignored on huge page mappings', and no changes to other part of
man-page.

time_namespaces.7: Tweaks for symbolic clock-IDs in /proc/PID/timens_offsets

Andrei Vagin implemented a change I suggested:
clock-IDs are now be expressed in symbolic form (e.g.,
"monotonic") instead of numeric form (e.g., 1) when reading
/proc/PID/timerns_offsets, and can be expressed either
symbolically or numerically when writing to that file.
